The COVID-19 Challenge
ü Company had to shut down their
on-site operations immediately
ü IMMEDIATE NEED:
Implementation of remote
virtualized desktop access for all
helpdesk staff
ü ASSURANCE: Governance policies
secured to avoid cyber breaches
with sensitive data
Experimentation at its best:
Remote Working Solution Deployed in One Week!
COVID 19 brought the best out of both teams and with strong 24x7 collaboration,
deep bench, and systematic automation, the project was completed in 1 week

• “test and learn” culture
• Co-creation
• Brand ambassadors
• Multiple Integrated Experiences
• Each Experience is Earned - Every Choice Must be Guided

2DATA

In just 8 years…
the average person will interact with a
connected device nearly 4,800 times a day.
By 2025…
75 percent of the population will be connected,
creating and interacting with data.
Data must be immediately
available whenever and
wherever we need it.
Other Real-Time
25 95
By 2025…
over 25 percent of data created
in the global datasphere will be
real-time in nature, and IoT
real-time data will make up
more than 95 percent of this.
Data from new sources will open up new
risks to private and sensitive information.
By 2025…
almost 90 percent of all data created in the global
datasphere will require some level of security, but
less than half will be secured.
